Free agent starting pitcher Framber Valdez remains one of the top players on the market with spring training just a few weeks away. As Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports, Valdez isn't alone in that regard. Other top free agent arms include former Cy Young candidates Lucas Giolito and Zac Gallen, as well as future Hall of Fame inductees Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer. Valdez is looking for a new home after excelling as Houston's ace. He posted double-digit wins and at least 22 starts in each of the last five seasons, and he posted an impressive 3.34 xFIP with 8.77 K/9 and 3.19 BB/9 in 2025. He continued to effectively limit weak contact with just 0.7 HR/9 and a 72.9% ground ball rate. It's still unclear which teams are pursuing Valdez the heaviest, but there's no denying that he would offer a major upgrade to most rotations throughout the league. Currently, he's the #28 starting pitcher in RotoBaller's latest fantasy baseball draft rankings, but he'll presumably move up or down a few spots once he signs with a team.--Andersen Pickard

Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve won't participate in the World Baseball Classic, according to Brian McTaggart of MLB.com. Altuve said on Saturday that he would like to play for Venezuela, but McTaggart reports that the Astros would prefer for him to remain with the club throughout spring training, and he plans to honor that request. The former MVP would have played second base and hit third in the lineup if he had participated in the WBC, according to Venezuela manager Omar Lopez, who is also Houston's bench coach. A team asking its player to skip the WBC is rare but not completely unheard of, and it's largely precautionary in an effort to avoid injury ahead of a long MLB regular season. During his last WBC appearance in 2023, Altuve suffered a fractured right thumb after being hit by a pitch. The injury required surgery, and he missed the first 43 games of the regular season. Obviously, Houston wants to avoid a repeat scenario of 2023. Altuve is one of the best hitters in baseball, and he's coming off a .265/.329/.442 campaign that would be classified as above-average for most players, but was a down year by his standards. He added 26 home runs, an 8.4% walk rate, a 16.7% strikeout rate, and 113 wRC+. He posted 2.1 fWAR, which was his lowest mark since 2020. Last season also required Altuve to adjust to a new defensive position; he made 47 appearances in left field, as well as 66 at second base and 49 as the Astros' designated hitter. As it stands, Altuve ranks as the #6 second baseman in RotoBaller's latest fantasy baseball draft rankings for 2026.--Andersen Pickard

Free-agent outfielder Harrison Bader agreed with the San Francisco Giants on Monday on a two-year, $20.5 million deal, a source told Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. With Bader coming aboard to play center field for the Gigantes in 2026, the team will shift Jung Hoo Lee to right field after a subpar season in center field in the Bay Area. The 31-year-old hit a combined .277/.347/.449 with a .796 OPS, career-high 17 home runs, career-high 54 RBI, 11 stolen bases, and 61 runs scored in a career-high 146 regular-season games between the Minnesota Twins and Philadelphia Phillies. Bader had a .644 OPS in his previous three seasons, though, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect another career year in 2026, especially with the move to the Giants' hitter-friendly home ballpark. Under the hood, Bader's 40.7% hard-hit rate, 87.2 mph average exit velocity, .223 xBA, and .364 xSLG suggest that he's due for regression.--Keith Hernandez

Los Angeles Rams offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur is scheduled to meet with the Arizona Cardinals for a second, in-person interview on Monday and Tuesday for the head-coaching job, sources told Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. LaFleur has worked as the Rams' offensive coordinator under head coach Sean McVay for the last three seasons. Before that, he had an unsuccessful two-year stint as the New York Jets' OC. LaFleur hasn't generated a ton of interest -- probably because he was not the one calling plays in L.A. for the Rams' offense -- but he's also a head-coaching candidate for the Las Vegas Raiders. The 38-year-old has also coached with the San Francisco 49ers, Atlanta Falcons, and Cleveland Browns under head coach Kyle Shanahan. He is the younger brother of Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur.--Keith Hernandez

The Los Angeles Chargers and defensive tackle Teair Tart agreed to a three-year, $37.5 million contract extension on Monday, a source told Kris Rhim of ESPN. Tart's deal includes $20 million in guarantees. General manager Joe Hortiz and the Bolts have gone to work quickly this offseason to begin patching up what was one of the team's biggest weaknesses in 2025. Tart emerged as one of L.A.'s most important players this past season, and he came away with the best year of his career. His 12 run stops ranked seventh in the NFL and first on the team. In the Wild-Card loss to the New England Patriots, Tart deflected a pass that led to an interception, had his first sack since 2024, and had two tackles for loss. The Chargers are expected to look into contracts to retain outside linebackers Odafe Oweh and Khalil Mack next.--Keith Hernandez

ESPN's Josh Weinfuss writes that Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray's trade value has increased after Oregon QB Dante Moore announced on Jan. 14 that he would return to school for his junior season in 2026. Moore was projected to go second overall, behind Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza. "One less quarterback on the market makes desperation increase," a source said. There isn't another clear-cut first-round signal-caller in this year's draft behind Mendoza, now that Moore is going back to school. An NFC source said they think the starting price for Murray, if Arizona is interested in moving him, could begin with a second-round pick. A league source believes Murray's market starts with a third-rounder. Murray is still a talented player, but he never played in 2025 after a foot injury in Week 5, putting his future in Arizona in question after another frustrating campaign. A final decision on whether the Cardinals decide to trade Murray this offseason might not be reached until the team hires a new head coach.--Keith Hernandez

ESPN's Michael DiRocco writes that "early indications" are that Jacksonville Jaguars two-way star and former Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter is "primarily going to be a cornerback and have a package of plays on offense." Hunter's rookie season in the NFL was cut short by a season-ending knee injury, but he finished the year as more of a receiver than a cornerback. He played 67% of the offensive snaps and 36% of the defensive snaps before his non-contact knee injury in practice on Oct. 30. The Jaguars will continue to use Hunter on offense, but they have more of a need at defensive back going into next season. Hunter could start across from Jourdan Lewis while also playing in nickel situations. What general manager James Gladstone does in free agency will help clarify what exactly the Jags will do with Hunter, but right now, it looks like his fantasy football stock will drop drastically.--Keith Hernandez

Paddy Pimblett suffered a unanimous decision loss to Justin Gaethje in the main event of UFC 324 on Saturday. It was an exciting, back-and-forth fight, but ultimately, Gathje won because of his pressure and for managing to hurt and drop Pimblett twice. Pimblett had success with his leg kicks and with his striking, but he wasn't able to take Gaethje down. Not only was this an exciting fight, but although it's way too early to decide the fight of the year, this fight has to be the frontrunner. In 25 minutes of action, Pimblett landed 156 significant strikes. The loss was Pimblett's first in UFC, snapping a nine-fight winning streak and dropping him to 23-4 in his career.--Alen Kurbasic

Waldo Cortes-Acosta extended his win streak by defeating former title challenger Derrick Lewis via second-round TKO on the main card of UFC 324 on Saturday. Cortes-Acosta was light on his feet, and he used his footwork to stay out of danger. After tagging Lewis time and time again, Cortes-Acosta landed a jab that dropped his opponent, so Cortes-Acosta followed up with ground and pound, finishing Lewis in the second round. In 8:14 of action, Cortes-Acosta landed a takedown and 44 significant strikes. Cortes-Acosta is now 5-1 over the last year, and now he's won three fights in a row.--Alen Kurbasic

Former heavyweight title challenger Derrick Lewis suffered a second-round TKO loss to Waldo Cortes-Acosta on the main card of UFC 324 on Saturday. Lewis had trouble closing the distance, and he couldn't land a strike significant enough to hurt his opponent as Cortes-Acosta used his footwork to stay away from "The Black Beast". In the second round, the former title challenger got hit with a jab that dropped him, and Cortes-Acosta then followed up with ground and pound, finishing Lewis.

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III blew up for a season-high 116 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns on 19 carries in the Divisional Round win over the San Francisco 49ers last weekend. While Walker didn't have that big of a game in the NFC Championship win over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, he did score his fourth rushing touchdown in the last two weeks. The 25-year-old continued to be a catalyst for Seattle's high-scoring offense and finished with 19 carries for the second straight week for 62 yards and the score. He also caught all four of his targets for 49 yards. Walker was the clear workhorse for Seattle -- with no other RB seeing more than three carries -- after Zach Charbonnet's (knee) season-ending tore ACL last week. He'll be the clear workhorse again in the Super Bowl in two weeks against the Patriots.--Keith Hernandez

New England Patriots rookie running back TreVeyon Henderson played a season-low 6% of the offensive snaps in Sunday's win over the hosting Denver Broncos in the AFC Championship. Meanwhile, backfield mate Rhamondre Stevenson played a season-high 94% of the snaps, carrying the ball 25 times for 71 yards in the 10-7 snowy victory. Henderson once again took a back seat to Stevenson, rushing the pigskin only three times for five yards. He was not targeted in the passing game. There was little offense to come by for either team in bad conditions in the second half in the Mile High City on Sunday, as the Patriots only mustered 206 yards of total offense. The 23-year-old from Ohio State had 23 total touches in the team's first two playoff wins, and he'll head into the Super Bowl in two weeks against a tough Seattle Seahawks defense as New England's clear No. 2 RB behind Stevenson.--Keith Hernandez

Seattle Seahawks tight end AJ Barner has been very quiet in the team's two playoff wins, as he caught just two of his three targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 31-27 win over the division-rival Los Angeles Rams in the NFC Championship. It was better than Barner's donut for fantasy managers in the blowout win over the San Francisco 49ers in the Divisional Round, but it still was a disappointment. Quarterback Sam Darnold targeted Barner only three times among his 36 pass attempts on the day in a game that featured plenty of offense on both sides. The 23-year-old second-year tight end was the TE14 in half-PPR scoring during the regular season, catching 52 of his 68 targets for 519 yards and six touchdowns, and he remains mostly reliant on finding the end zone for fantasy production. For the Super Bowl in two weeks, Barner could face competition for targets from rookie Elijah Arroyo, who was a healthy scratch on Sunday after coming off Injured Reserve last week.--Keith Hernandez

The Los Angeles Angels have signed veteran first baseman Trey Mancini to a minor-league contract, according to Ken Rosenthal. Terms of the deal weren't disclosed, but it seems likely that Mancini will be headed to spring training as a non-roster invite. The former eight-round pick hasn't played in the majors since 2023, and he spent the first half of last season with the Diamondbacks' Triple-A affiliate, slashing .308/.373/.522 with 110 wRC+ across 74 games before opting out of his contract. He's been a free agent ever since, and now, he'll presumably head to Angels camp in Arizona with a chance to compete for an Opening Day roster spot. Nolan Schanuel has first base locked down for the Halos, but he's the only first baseman on the 40-man roster. Assuming the Angels choose to carry two first basemen into the regular season, Mancini and Niko Kavadas should compete for the role.--Andersen Pickard

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp found the end zone in a revenge game on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams in Seattle's NFC Championship victory. Kupp, who played for the Rams for the first eight seasons of his career, caught four of his six targets for 36 yards and a touchdown in the 31-27 win. The 32-year-old veteran's touchdown grab came in the fourth quarter to put Seattle up for good in the back-and-forth affair. Kupp is no longer in the prime of his career, and he was more of a low-upside role player for the Seahawks in 2025, but he has been more of a factor on offense during two postseason contests. In wins over the Rams and San Francisco 49ers in the playoffs, Kupp has nine catches for 96 yards and a touchdown. He'll look to keep it going in two weeks in the Super Bowl against a New England Patriots defense that allowed the sixth-fewest receiving yards (2,014) during the regular season.--Keith Hernandez

Cincinnati Reds utilityman Tyler Callihan (left forearm) says that he is a "full-go" ahead of spring training next month. Callihan suffered a gruesome left forearm fracture while crashing into the left-field wall in Atlanta last May. He was just four games into his rookie campaign at the time of the injury, and he ended up missing the remainder of the season. After a lengthy recovery, he's looking to compete for a roster spot during camp. When talking about Callihan, president of baseball operations Nick Krall said, "He is going to come in and compete for a spot on the club. That's a testament to him and his rehab and our rehab staff and him just putting in the work." The 25-year-old made three appearances in left field and one at second base prior to his injury, but he also played some first base at Triple-A in 2025 and has experience at third base from early in his minor league career. Across 24 Triple-A games prior to his promotion, he slashed an impressive .303/.410/.528 with a 15.1% walk rate, a 27.4% strikeout rate, and 150 wRC+. He went 1-for-6 with an RBI single over his short sample size in the majors. While Callihan doesn't have any immediate fantasy appeal, there's a path to potential playing time if he makes the Opening Day roster. Dane Myers, Garrett Hampson, Rece Hinds, and Blake Dunn are also in the mix and will compete with Callihan for a roster spot.--Andersen Pickard

Free agent starting pitcher Tomoyuki Sugano intends to stay in Major League Baseball and is "not considering" a return to Nippon Professional Baseball, according to a television interview translated to English by @gnomotoke on X. Sugano signed his first MLB contract with the Orioles a year ago, and he pitched to a 4.70 xFIP with 6.08 K/9 and 2.06 BB/9 in his debut season. While he remains a free agent, Sugano has reportedly connected with multiple teams and is waiting to receive an offer. 2025 wasn't a great season for Sugano by any means, but the expected metrics look upon him more favorably than the results, suggesting that he could be due for some improvement next season. The 36-year-old right-hander isn't a big swing-and-miss pitcher, so he typically needs to induce weak contact to generate favorable results. That didn't really happen in 2025, as he surrendered an 11.8% barrel rate with 1.89 HR/9. We don't know yet which teams are interested in Sugano, but he's likely looking for a major league deal if he feels compelled to stay stateside rather than return to NPB. He's not a viable fantasy baseball option for the 2026 campaign.--Andersen Pickard

Chicago Bears offensive coordinator Declan Doyle has withdrawn his name from consideration for the Philadelphia Eagles' offensive-coordinator vacancy, sources told Dianna Russini of The Athletic. Doyle has decided to stay in Chicago to work with head coach Ben Johnson and quarterback Caleb Williams after a special season in 2025 that saw the team advance to the Divisional Round of the postseason. The 30-year-old would have taken over play-calling duties for the Eagles had he been hired for the position, but he has decided to stick around under Johnson for at least one more season. Doyle was in his first year as the Bears' OC in 2025, but Johnson handled play-calling duties for the offense. Before joining Johnson's staff, Doyle was the Denver Broncos tight ends coach from 2023 to 2024. He also worked as an offensive assistant with the Saints from 2019 to 2022.--Keith Hernandez

Houston Texans quarterbacks coach Jerrod Johnson is set to interview for the Philadelphia Eagles' offensive-coordinator position, a source told Aaron Wilson of KPRC2 Sports. Johnson was also a candidate for the offensive-coordinator job with the Miami Dolphins before they went with former Texans OC Bobby Slowik. The Eagles spoke with Johnson for the same position in 2024, too, before ultimately giving the job to Kellen Moore, who is now the head coach of the New Orleans Saints. Johnson has been Houston's QB coach since 2023 and has never held a coordinator position. If he were to land the job in Philadelphia, it remains to be seen if he'd be given play-calling responsibilities. Under Johnson, quarterback C.J. Stroud was amazing in his rookie season in 2023 before regressing in the last two seasons.--Keith Hernandez

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Joe Musgrove (elbow) is expected to be ready for the start of spring training in February, according to Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune. Musgrove has been sidelined since October 2024 due to Tommy John surgery, but it sounds like he should be a full-go when the Padres report to Arizona next month. "I feel like I'm in a good position physically [and] mentally for the season," Musgrove said. Acee added that the veteran pitcher was preparing to be available for the NLCS if San Diego qualified, so the extra three months of recovery should only further verify that he's at full health. That's great news for the Padres and fantasy baseball managers. Musgrove projects to be the Padres' No. 3 starter, slotting in behind Michael King and Nick Pivetta. When he was last healthy in 2024, he pitched to a 3.74 xFIP with 9.12 K/9 and 2.08 BB/9 across 19 starts (99.2 innings). He hasn't pitched more than 100 innings since 2022, but the metrics from his last healthy campaign are very encouraging nonetheless. As it stands, Musgrove ranks as the #71 starting pitcher in RotoBaller's latest fantasy baseball rankings for 2026.--Andersen Pickard

The Los Angeles Chargers officially hired former Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel as their new offensive coordinator, a source told Daniel Popper of The Athletic. McDaniel and the Chargers agreed on a deal almost a week ago, but he was still holding out hope of landing another head-coaching job. The Chargers will introduce McDaniel in the coming days as he takes over for previous OC Greg Roman. The Dolphins fired McDaniel after he led the team to a 7-10 record in 2025, and he immediately became a popular head-coaching candidate and potential OC around the league. He should bring some creativity to the Chargers' offense under head coach Jim Harbaugh after they fell short again in the Wild-Card round of the playoffs with a loss to the New England Patriots. The hiring of McDaniel should be good news for quarterback Justin Herbert.--Keith Hernandez

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi (shoulder, hernia) does not expect to have any limitations ahead of spring training next month, he said during an appearance on the SportsDay Rangers podcast. Eovaldi suffered a season-ending rotator cuff strain last August, followed by a sports hernia that required surgery in October. However, it sounds like he's nearing full health, and not only will he be a full-go for spring training, but he should be cleared to make the Opening Day rotation. "I've been throwing multiple bullpens, and my arm feels great, body feels great, and I'm ready for the season to get going," he said. That's great news for the Rangers and fantasy baseball managers. Eovaldi pitched to a stellar 1.73 ERA last year, and his 2.80 FIP was also quite impressive despite suggesting he experienced some good luck. He should return to his terrific form this year, looking to maintain his phenomenal 8.93 K/9, 1.45 BB/9, and 50.3% ground ball rate from 2025. He currently projects as the No. 2 starter in an exciting rotation that also features Jacob deGrom and MacKenzie Gore.

The Arizona Cardinals are interviewing former Miami Dolphins defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver a second time on Monday for their head-coaching job, sources told Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated. Weaver was a finalist for the head-coaching jobs with the Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers this cycle, and he was also a finalist for the New Orleans Saints' head-coaching gig last year. The 45-year-old was the Dolphins' defensive coordinator the last two years and also worked for the Ravens from 2021 to 2023 under head coach John Harbaugh. Weaver could be an ideal fit for the Cardinals organization as they look to replace Jonathan Gannon. The Buffalo Bills are also in play for Weaver, but the Cardinals appear to be making the bigger push for him. The Bills seem to prefer an offensive-minded head coach to pair with quarterback Josh Allen, so Weaver might be more of a long shot there.--Keith Hernandez

The Philadelphia Eagles have interviewed Miami Dolphins offensive coordinator Frank Smith for their offensive-coordinator job, a source told Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. Smith has spent the last four years with the Dolphins, where he was voted the league's top OC in a 2023 NFL Players Association survey. The Eagles have had a tough time finding takers for their open OC role despite having plenty of talent on the offensive side of the ball. Smith did not call plays in Miami under former head coach Mike McDaniel, but he'd most likely have the opportunity to do that in Philly. The Eagles blew out the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl last year, but their offense went stagnant under first-year OC Kevin Patullo in 2025 and ranked 19th in points scored and 24th in total yards per game.--Keith Hernandez

Former Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott, who was surprisingly fired after his ninth year in Buffalo, is likely to take a year off from coaching, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. McDermott would be one of the top head-coaching candidates for any of the remaining NFL jobs, but to Rapoport's knowledge, he has not expressed interest in any of the openings around the league. Former QB Philip Rivers was among those who interviewed for the Bills' vacant head-coaching job last week, but he has since withdrawn his name from the search. Quarterback Josh Allen is firmly involved in the team's search for a new head coach and will have a big say on who the organization eventually goes with to replace McDermott.

If he doesn't land the job in Buffalo, he will be back with head coach Liam Coen in Duval in 2026. Despite being only 30 years old, Udinski is already a legitimate head-coaching candidate. Udinski didn't call plays for the Jags offense in 2025, but he did help them finish sixth in scoring, 11th in total yards, and 12th in passing yards. Quarterback Trevor Lawrence also had a career-high 29 touchdown passes and 38 total TDs, which was third in the NFL behind Matthew Stafford and Josh Allen.--Keith Hernandez

The Buffalo Bills are expected to reach out to Denver Broncos passing-game coordinator/quarterbacks coach Davis Webb for their head-coaching job, sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Webb, a former QB with the Bills, is a quick riser in the coaching ranks in the NFL and is also a strong candidate for the head-coaching job this cycle for the Las Vegas Raiders. Despite having no previous play-calling experience in the NFL, Webb could be an option in Buffalo because of his relationship with QB Josh Allen. Webb was a backup for the Bills from 2019 to 2021 before getting his start in coaching in 2023 with the Broncos. It remains to be seen if Webb will get a head-coaching job this cycle, but there's no question that he's quickly become one of the best young, rising offensive-minded coaches in the league.--Keith Hernandez
